Abstract: The application relates to the management of services such as email, voice communications, instant text messaging, Internet browsing, music downloading, etc. provided to subscribers of in particular a wireless network. In the prior art, a service provider is maintaining a list of individual services and the status of each service for each subscriber. The idea underlying the present application is to be seen in that management of services is made more efficient by defining a list of available service bundles such that each subscriber can be associated with a particular service bundle, rather than be associated with a long list of individual services. 
There is disclosed a system and method for managing service for carrier subscribers and migrating them to service bundles. In an embodiment, the method comprises obtaining a list of existing services to which a subscriber is subscribed (602); comparing the list of services to available service bundles (604); determining if there is an exact match of services between the list of existing services and services included in one or more available service bundles (606), and if so, migrating the subscriber to the one or more available service bundles with the exact match (607). The method may further comprise identifying a main service in the list of existing services and determining if there is a partial match of services between the main service and a service included in one or more available service bundles (608), and if so, migrating the subscriber to the one or more available service bundles with the partial match (609). A subscriber may be manually migrated if migration is not possible with an exact match or partial match (610).

Abstract: A container (10) having an integrated bottom end (22) closure subassembly. The container includes a top opening (18) and bottom opening (24). The top opening (18) is initially closed and sealed with a top membrane (30) while the bottom opening (24) is closed by the end closure (22) subassembly. The subassembly includes an end cap (44) and a bottom membrane (42). The subassembly is configured so that positioning the end cap (44) onto the container (10) to close the bottom opening (24) positions the bottom membrane (42) near the container (10). The bottom membrane (42) may be sealed to the container (10). Once the bottom membrane (42) is sealed to the container (10), the end cap (44) may be removed from the container (10) independently from the bottom membrane (42). The end cap (44) provides protection to the bottom membrane (42) during shipping and handling and then is used by the consumer to reclose the top opening (18) once the top membrane (30) is removed.

Abstract: A device for aiding a surgical procedure, the device having an elongated shaft with a distal end, a proximal end and a longitudinal axis therebetween. The proximal end has a handle attached thereto, and the distal end has an end effector attached thereto. The shaft has first and second spaced apart strips running along the longitudinal axis and attached to the distal end of the end effector. The end effector includes a plurality of spaced apart links disposed along the longitudinal axis between the distal end of the end effector the distal end of the shaft. The strips run through the links, and each link is attached to at least one strip. The device also includes an actuator attached to the handle. The actuator pulls the first strip proximally, causing the links and the end effector to curve in the direction of the first strip. The actuator also includes a means for preventing the first strip from moving proximally beyond a predetermined amount and thereby causing the end effector to bend only up to a predetermined angle. In addition, the predetermined angle is such that the links never make contact with one another.
